Simon Hodge:
‘I just wanted to share some snippets on one project that relies on us for support -

The Esther Generation, helping needy teenage girls and young children in Arua, NW Uganda and over the border into DR Congo – both to build their self-esteem in the Lord, and acquire practical skills for the future….’

This will go to support one of the main projects (still under consideration).

A special thank you to all who helped, and especially to the Auld Reekie Sawbones Band who gave their services freely!

Speaker: Rupert Ward

Scriptures:  Rom 12:1,2

Description: There are two forces at work in our lives: the culture around trying to squeeze us into its mould, and God who is renewing and transforming to be like Him.  What are those forces at work in our culture?  Which of those are we more aware of?  And what can we do to allow God to transform us, rather than be squeezed into the world’s mould?

Houseparty is something we have done as a church for several years (although we haven’t done one for a while).  It is formed round a relaxed environment in a great location (picture above) and is a great place to get to know one another better, to meet new people and to try out new things.

Click through to Houseparty Signup to get more information about the weekend, the location we are going to and to book in!  You can now pay by PayPal there too.
